2023 Charlie Normile’s Turkey Trot

November 23rd, 2023, 7:00am

Sandbridge Beach, VA

Some people like to kick off their Thanksgiving with a little time outdoors. Lucky for us, we have a great event being held in Sandbridge to offset some of that extra pumpkin pie! The 2023 Charlie Normile’s Turkey Trot will be held November 23rd at 7:00am in Sandbridge.

This event is held in honor of Charlie and James Normile and will raise money for the Navy SEAL Foundation in memory of those men who lost their lives serving our country.

The festive events include a competitive 5K race with prizes, a 1 mile fun run & canine crawl, and a Gobble Wobble (26.2 meters!) for children 5 and younger.

The Turkey Trot is fun for the entire family—pups included! Besides the competitive 5K race, there is a 1-mile Fun Run and Canine Crawl.

A Sandbridge Family Tradition

We have many families who have turned an initial Sandbridge visit into an annual tradition. The surf, sun, and sheer beauty of the area is the perfect place to gather with loved ones and spend quality time together.

Olivia Benson’s family began their Sandbridge tradition when she was less than a year old. Year after year the family returned to our little slice of paradise to make priceless memories. One of Olivia’s favorite Sandbridge memories is from 2018. On the very same beach she grew up visiting, her (now) husband proposed! Her family was staying in Silver Sands and her cousins were staying nearby in another rental property; “We were able to come share the news with all of my cousins and aunts and uncles which was SO special! The year after, we rode on bikes down to the exact place we got engaged!”

The Benson family has since added a new beach buddy—Olivia and her husband now get to share the magic of Sandbridge with their son! We are ecstatic Olivia is able to add another generation to such an awesome family tradition.

Sandbridge is an incredible place, and we are very thankful we can be a part of your family traditions. We love seeing photos of families and friends creating memories at the beach! Feel free to share your favorite Sandbridge stories with us.

A sand scooper/shell sifter is a handy tool that makes it easy to look for shells. Want to bring some home? A mesh bag is the perfect place to store them and it also makes them easy to rinse off! 

•  A Portable Speaker or Headphones 

Nothing makes a beach day or relaxing at your rental better than listening to your favorite tunes! Packing a small portable speaker or some headphones is always a good idea. Just remember to please be courteous to the families around you.
